    So you think you can ride a bicycle?

    Those of us who become deaf and then are implanted with a cochlear implant (CI) learn to hear with it at different paces. Why? Neuroplasticity, IMO.

    There are two big emotional arguments within the deaf community. Should someone receive a CI? Should and when should child be implanted with a CI?

    This link, though not related to hearing with a cochlear implant, demonstrates that we all learn different things at different rates due to differences within our brains. It's called neuroplasticity, part of what makes us individuals!
